Ding Yun did not spare time to attend to his back injury. He rapidly walked up to Qiao Mu and grasped her hand, saying, “Let’s leave quickly! She shouldn’t have just sent these two people over.”
However, just as he moved forward, he couldn’t help but lean heavily against the tree beside him. He was only barely able to stand firm while holding on to the tree, as well.
The little lady threw away his hand and looked at him expressionlessly.
Cult Master Ding could only turn to look at her with a forced smile.
Suddenly, the little fellow pattered over to his side before swiftly striking two of his acupoints with her finger. She then very instinctually took out a bottle of medicinal powder and poured some on his back injury.
Afterwards, her small hand heavily slapped on some kind of unknown ointment onto his back injury.
The blood on his back promptly stopped flowing out, and the injury didn’t hurt as much as before.
Cult Master Ding tugged at the corner of his mouth and forced a smile at the little lady. “I’m fine, we have to leave here as soon as possible. Let’s go!”
He understood his old mother’s methods all too well.
By now, she probably had doubts about entrusting others to deal with the lil’ blockhead. He reckoned that she would personally make a trip and put the lil’ blockhead to death with her own hands.
*Swish, swish, swish—* Heavenly Law’s intangible fetters abruptly bound Cult Master Ding’s limbs, securing him to the spot firmly.
A harsh light flashed past Ding Yun’s eyes. He abruptly flung his hand, breaking free of Heavenly Law’s fetters. He then pulled Qiao Mu over and flew through the air with a leap.
However, his complexion paled even more, and his breathing was ragged.
How could Heavenly Law just let off people who rashly mobilized spiritual energy in the Lower Star Domain? One formless chain after another speedily chased after Ding Yun.
Dodging as he pulled Qiao Mu along, Ding Yun rapidly passed through the forest. In the blink of an eye, the two figures had already travelled far away.
Feeling his senses stir, Crown Prince Mo looked up. Yet he only saw several cawing crows shedding feathers as they flapped their wings.
“Your Highness, we have found an underground base five kilometers to the southeast.” Huifeng was a bit flustered. “From the looks of it, its scale is quite large. Do you want to go take a look at it, Your Highness?”
Mo Lian looked off into the distance again before nodding his head and following Huifeng southeast.
In an abandoned hut outside the Mystic Beast Forest.
At this time, the Raksha Princess was trembling all over as she knelt in front of a metal demon-masked man. She didn’t dare lift her head up even the tiniest bit.
Her nose had turned green, her face was swollen, and a trickle of blood hung from the corner of her mouth. From the looks of it, she had just been sorted out violently.
“You fool! For your own selfishness, you exposed our underground base, which was also such a huge loss! You simply aren’t worth pitying even in death.” The middle-aged man was both angry and resentful, and he abruptly stuck out his foot to fiercely stomp on the Raksha Princess’s body.
The Raksha Princess subsequently fell to the ground and shrunk into a ball, crying out quaveringly, “Spare this one, Hall Master. Please spare this one.”
“Master’s plans have been totally ruined by you stupid woman!” The metal demon-masked man walked up to her and crouched down. He put one hand on his knee while forcefully clutching the Raksha Princess’s hair with his other hand. “Immediately bring everyone to pull out from the base.”
The Raksha Princess’s pupils contracted. “Master’s intention is to give up on this base?”
This was the organization’s second largest base. They were just going to give up on so many years’ worth of painstaking effort so easily?
*Slap!* The middle-aged man gave her a slap across the mouth. “What can we do if we don’t pull out? The crown prince’s people are almost there with their search!”
“It is too late, Hall Master. Their people have already arrived.”
“Burn! Burn it all!” A cold light flitted across the bottom of the middle-aged demon-masked man’s eyes.
